Rationale

- F3018 is due for reapproval and shall be revised - since the last revision, some referenced standards evolved and new ones were published - probably the most influential one, is the extensive revision of ISO 21535 incl. new definitions, requirements and descriptions; others are F3047M and ISO 7206-1 (still ongoing) - aim of the revision: harmonization with existing standards, eliminating redundancy while retaining important information and requirements which are not yet available elsewhere
